pesto.wsgiutils.serve_static_file should use "Last-Modified" header instead of "Last-Modified-Date"
Samuel Wan
First of all, thank you for the pesto framework. It's very clean,
simple, and I hope to deploy a product with it soon.
In case this google group is active, I wanted to let you know I had
some difficulty getting static files to cache correctly. It turns out
that the wsgiutils.serve_static_file method adds a "Last-Modified-
Date" response header which isn't recognized in Firefox (and probably
other browsers). As a result, the browser does not send a "If-Modified-
Since" request header.
In order to get the browser to send an "If-Modified-Since" request
header, I first needed to add a "Last-Modified" response header
instead of "Last-Modified-Date". It seems that "Last-Modified" is the
correct header name according to the rfc: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html
Line 274 of wsgiutils.py...
last_modified_date = time.strftime('%w, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S
GMT', time.gmtime(stat.st_mtime)),
...should be...
last_modified = time.strftime('%w, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S GMT',
time.gmtime(stat.st_mtime)),

creation time rather than modification time on OSX, python 2.5.1, so a
"Last-Modified-Date" request header won't expire correctly. I found
"os.path.getmtime" to give the correct modification time instead.

Sorry I didn't get to your messages sooner, I've been away for my email
for the last few days. Thanks for the changes � I'll fix those headers
and the mtime problem and put a new release out.
Cheers,
Olly.

this version on OSX and let me know if it fixes the problems you're having?

If it looks OK then I'll put out an official PyPI release.
Olly.

MutableMapping class isn't included in my version of python. Here's

You're right, it looks like MutableMapping isn't available in Python 2.5
� I'll see what I can do to make the code backwards compatible.
